What a great insight about the stained glass. I never heard that. And thank you for this exchange. I like the idea of perspective changing our view, so very helpful. Philippa
Very well written and put. I like the concept of clarity rather than certainty as being important in life. I was also interested when a photogtapher once explained to me why church stained glass windows are much brighter from the inside on a dull rather than sunny day.
I love that observation about stained glass and how light changes depending on where you’re standing. It says a lot about how understanding can come from angle and context, not just brightness. Sometimes it’s less about having answers and more about seeing things a little more cleanly. That photographer gave you a great metaphor to carry around.
As Leonard Cohen once wrote, “There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light gets in.”
